Is it “winner-takes all” when the simplest living things compete? Check out my fresh publication on phage coexistence in Science and a thread below🧵 science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

The @KITP_UCSB QBio course on mobile elements was amazing 🩵 With excellent projects led by @PaulTurnerLab, Roberto Kolter, @jemersonmicro, @richardneher, @NimwegenLab, @benjaminhgood ( me). Course began with a wetlab bootcamp, Dallas Mould demonstrating the first experiments..

.@AntaniJo (@Yale) etal developed a microscopy-based technique to measure #phage attachment to bacterial cells. This method provides an alternative to the century-old Phage Adsorption Assay. Feel free to reach out with any questions: jyot.antani@yale.edu.

I am absolutely delighted to be joining the University of British Columbia next year as an Assistant Professor @ZoologyUBC.
We will study social evolution in viruses.

Undergrad Liya Miksovsky (Mon, 5:45-8:15PM, 220 DE) will present her work with @AsherLeeks demonstrating the evolution of social cheating in M13, which was underlain by an unexpected genetic cause🧬.

Finally, Posdoc @AsherLeeks (Tues, 4:45-5PM, 520D) is discussing his recent theoretical work that explores the dynamics of social cheating during viral infection. His model suggests that viral social interactions may shape human disease outcomes more than previously thought 😷.
